Seriously....Redwood and Spanish Cedar? Am I reading that correctly? Ugh...that trip is going to be expensive, and I don't mean airfare!!! I'm safe as long as there are no bevels...

Thanks for the kind word Paul! So, we got some vacation post cards from Stan's FS while off enjoying the spa. She's been working quite a bit on her tan:

I opened this one up a bit so you could see how that purfling pops! What a dreamboat!

This guitar has a wedge and soundport, but no bevels. I feel about bevels the same way some people feel about cutaways: it spoils the symmetry. Actually, I feel a little that way about cutaways myself, but I need one on a 12 fret. Someday I might need a bevel too, so never say never. Probably a bigger factor in choosing to be bevel-less was cost: I was trying to get Steve to make me a cheap, Plain-Jane guitar. I don't think I succeeded.

It's only slightly deflating to know: we haven't even got the neck on, and already we've failed!

That's right, Steve, you have failed, once again, to make an ugly guitar. I may give you one more chance.

You know, Tom, you are really a bad influence. (But don't stop.)
